I don't understand the mc's reason to break up. It makes no sense.
I mean; It makes even less sense than usual in these games. oO
Not that I am good at understanding human behavior, however much I study it.

I feel there is so much information missing in the intro that it leaves my head spinning. The mc acts completely unreasonable towards her ex, in every way.

The game hints at something we don't know, so I'll withhold my judgement on that. But I don't understand -anything- she does.

He's being nothing but nice and loving.
Why is she overreacting so much? And over nothing at all?

Does she suffer from paranoia? Or some other mental illness?

The game is really well-made.
Both the writing and the art is very good.

But the main character acts really effing weird, over absolutely nothing.

I'm going to guess she has some kind of mental problem, or something happened with her ex that we don't know about or something.

But she's behaving stranger than I am used to an mc behaving.
And I'm pretty sure it's not just because human emotions eludes me this time.

I AM curious about what is going on tho.

As far as a 'hook' scene goes, this was excellent writing.

LOL it's interesting reading your play-by-play impressions... 😂 I am glad that you got the overall impression that I wanted and thought it was a good hook ("why is Nelli acting like this, what is going on, and why is she being so mean to her bf, who is nothing but nice to her? And certainly not just because she's a tsun...") 🤭 I hope you find the endings interesting!

And thank you for your compliments on the writing and art 😭 this was my second game that I released and my first game that was properly finished, and I wasn't really that confident at the time 💦 (I have gained a bit of confidence since then and I think I've improved a bit as a dev! 💪 Hopefully LOL)

While I normally prefer the games where I can insert myself rather than a pre-named mc, your game is good enough that I'm willing to invest in a character that is not me.

(I know, I'm super-lazy. I don't even read books without first reading a spoiler-heavy summary because most of them ends shitty in my opinion.
Visual Novels are no different --especially the big pro ones.
I've bought a million games that promise a villain love-interest, only to find he's just a sad kid who wants to do good thing but the world makes him seem more cruel than he is, OR he's got some kind of dumb-ass reason for killing people that totally justify it, making him an anti-hero, not a villain. Even more sadly, the first version is by far the most common and the second hard to find. >_>
I keep hoping to see a true villain, but the games who features the kind of guy (or girl) I like are pretty much all unfinished games, and most doesn't seem to ever update.

I'm so tired of investing in new stories only to be disappointed at the end. *sigh*)

As far as I can tell, your story doesn't promise things it's unlikely to deliver on at least.
(I played the other game in the triology just now. The choice-less demo at any rate.
The story is interesting. The lack of choices a bit disappointing tho.)

So it may be worth playing the full game, regardless of how it ends.

Still, I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed that at least one of the ends is a "bad end" where the guy goes serial killer crazy and the girl goes along with him in a Bonny & Clyde style. ^_^

Probably won't happen, but all the same... It'd be my favorite kind of end. lol
